The Alamo
The Battle of the Alamo is one of the most dramatic moments in American history, a stirring saga that has become a modern myth in which all Americans, and especially Texans, take great pride. Poet, novelist, and historian John Myers Myers gives us an account of this American symbol. With exhaustive research and obvious passion for his subject, Myers evokes the situation and characters of the legendary siege, bringing to life such figures as Bowie, Travis, Crockett, and Santa Ana. Here is the "master tale of the American frontier" with all the facts behind the genuine heroism that has made the story immortal."

- ""Those who doubt the greatness of men can leave this book alone or read and recant. This follows the story of the seige of the Alamo. It is one of the mightiest tales that the history of this or any nation has to offer. It includes as much of folly in the beginning as it does magnificence at the end, and is all the better for it. Above all it is, in all its ramifications, the master tale of the American frontier."--The book. In part one, "The Alamo and the Texans," the author gives us the background situation. In part two, "Four Men Reach the Alamo," are his interestingly detailed descriptions of Bowie, Travis, Crockett, and Santa Ana. Part three is "The Seige of the Alamo." This authentically researched account is written with great zest and gusto. Poet, novelist, and historian, John Myers Myers gives us a fascinating account of an American symbol. Written with tremendous zest, The Alamo is thrilling ... and sometimes amusing."@en
